Dear Mary,
Well one more Christmas away from home. Just a little note to let you know I'm OK. Haven't heard from you lately.
Here's hoping we will all be able to be together for next Christmas. I'll be thinking of you all.
Merry Christmas and God Bless you,
Lots of Luck and Love from Gwen and me,
Bill
